Hello Lamees Afify,
TabItem does not support
TabIndex property for tab selection. This is because
Tab key e processed differently than the other keys in
WidowsForms. The
Tab key is used to move between separate controls and therefore events like
KeyDown,
KeyUp and
KeyPress are not fired for controls.
However, there is a workaround for you that I can offer. This workaround allows you to switch between the tabs in
RadTabStrip pressing the
Tab key. Two approaches are demonstrated:
- Switching between tabs depending on their order in the RadTabStrip.Items collection.
- You can use the Tag property to set a value, which later will be used as a TabIndex value.
If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.
Sincerely yours,
Nikolay
